The Legendary DJ Delivers Memorable Set at Intimate Club

John Digweed delivered an unforgettable set on his Ibiza debut at Akasha, thrilling the crowd and cementing the club’s reputation as a top nightlife destination. The veteran DJ wowed fans with his impeccable track selection, showcasing his talent and expertise behind the decks.

Igor Marijuan, who is responsible for Akasha’s innovative programming, warmed up the crowd with a floaty, proggy house narrative, getting the audience ready for Digweed’s arrival. As the legendary DJ stepped onto the stage, there was a palpable sense of excitement and anticipation in the air.

Digweed opened his set with a drawn-out cinematic number, which quickly gave way to a faster pace, captivating the audience with his sonics and impressive sound system. The crowd was a diverse mix of cultures and ethnicities, all coming together to dance and enjoy the music.

As the night progressed, Digweed’s set took the audience on a journey, with peaks and troughs that kept everyone on their feet. He seamlessly transitioned from Afro House to synthy House in the Gerd Janson-mould, occasionally dipping in and out of an Acid bassline.

One of the appeals of Digweed down the years has been his quiet, unassuming demeanor, which stands in stark contrast to the attention-seeking DJs of today. He kept his focus on the music and let it do the talking, drawing the audience into his world and keeping them there until the very end.

As the night drew to a close, Igor returned to the booth for the last hour, ending the evening with the perfect go-home track of Âme and Ry X’s atmospheric Howling. The entire night was a massive success, and everyone involved in putting it together is hopeful that Digweed will return later in the year for another unforgettable performance.
